Fall harvest mind crusher!
 

Started a need mead today wanted to share and get some feedback.

3/4 inch of cinnamon stick
1 whole clove
Apple juice
1/2 tsp energizer
1 tsp nutrient
Dash ground mace
3 lbs clover honey
1 tsp red star Montrachet yeast
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
2 sm blood oranges ( cut up )
1/8 cup raisins
15 ounce pumpkin purée (secondary)
1/2 tbsp pumpkin pie spice (secondary)

Rack after 30 days into secondary and add spices and pumpkin purée, leave in secondary for 2-3 months bottle and wait till thanksgiving.:rockin:

Sounds awesome, I love spiced autumn flavors, but watch out for the mace, that stuff and nutmeg can overpower real fast

I know, I literally put in speck. I hope this turns out to be a good fall drink, November is a good 7 months away! Keep posting as this does it's thing!

I used cardamom seed in my autumn mead cyser and the slightly lemony herby flavor is amazing, it's been cold crashing for 3 days now but no sing of clearing at all. Thinking I need to hit the lhbs for some super kleen. You should try the cardamom in a test batch if you get the time, the smell is a perfect mirror of the taste FYI

Is this a 1 gallon batch?

This sounds quite good. Sounds like a gallon batch to me. If so, I might have to put this on my To-Brew List.

Yes this is a one gallon batch and it's feisty too....

Ignore the scribble on the bottle that is left over from an old batch!

Release the KRAUSEN!

bwahahaha!
